Parmesean fan? Mon, 03/14/11 5:22 PM (permalink)
If so, I highly recommend Costco's new sliced Parmesean, It's Cello brand, very reasonable, very good.
I just started taking pinches of it with my evening glass of Chardonnay, great combo!

    Sorry, but I'll stick with Parmigiano Reggiano. With my Allegrinie La Poia. And with everything else.

      Cello sells a Parmigiano Reggiano.
       
      I'm not sure that I'd drink chardonnay with it, though.

            "Cello" at CostCo is just a marketing brand (essentially they just slice the wheels and slap some cellophane and a label on it).  They offer a Parmigiano Reggiano, as well as an excellent Grana Padano and a Pecorino Romano.  I used to buy the Reggiano all the time but the Grana is so good now I usually get that.  Retiree's gotta economize.

                Don, it's just like cheese and crackers, without the crackers!

                  I'm a Grana Padano fan myself. Cheese snobs find it to be a "lower class" choice, but, hell, this is roadfood.com!

                    I have a good post that I found on Chef Phil's blog.
                     

                    PARMESAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS RECIPE

                    Serves: 4 Difficulty Level: 1 (of 5) Prep Time: 10 Minutes Ready In: 30 Minutes

                     

                    INGREDIENTS:

                    •Canola or olive oil cooking spray
                    •1/4 cup all-purpose flour
                    •2 large eggs
                    •1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
                    •1 cup coarse dry breadcrumbs, preferably whole-wheat (I use Panko style)
                    •1 pound chicken tenders
                    •1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
                    •1 teaspoon garlic powder
                    •1/4 teaspoon salt
                    •1 cup marinara sauce, heated

                    PROCEDURE:

                    •Preheat oven to 450°F.
                    •Place a large wire rack on a baking sheet and coat with cooking spray.
                    •Place flour in a shallow dish.
                    •Lightly beat eggs in another shallow dish.
                    •Combine Parmesan and breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
                    •Toss tenders with Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt in a medium bowl.
                    •Coat each tender in flour, shaking off any excess.
                    •Dip in egg and let any excess drip off. Then roll in the breadcrumb mixture.
                    •Place the tenders on the prepared rack.
                    •Generously coat the top of each tender with cooking spray.
                    •Bake for 10 minutes.
                    •Turn each tender over and coat with cooking spray.
                    •Continue baking until the outside is crisp and the tenders are cooked through, about 10 minutes more.
                    •Serve the tenders with marinara sauce for dipping.
